Hutchinson, the second-ranked girls' swimming team in the state, rallied to upset No. 1 Visitation on Saturday at Hutchinson, winning 99-87 on the strength on its young swimmers. The Tigers got points from 11 different underclassmen to defeat the four-time defending state champion.

The Tigers took their first lead of the match in the ninth event. The Blazers had the lead after seven of the first eight events and led by 10 points through five events.

Sophomore Lexi Kucera led the way for the Tigers with a first-place finish in the 100-yard freestyle and second-place finish in the 200 individual medley. She also anchored first-place teams in the 200 freestyle relay and 400 freestyle relay.

Eighth-grader Grace Hanson won the 50 freestyle, finished second in the 100 freestyle and swam the first legs of the winning relay teams in the 200 freestyle and 400 freestyle for the Tigers.

Burnsville 6, Rochester Century 0: Maya Hansen scored three goals and had an assist to lead the Class 2A, No. 14 Blaze past the visiting Panthers. Morgan Keirstead had one goal and three assists, and Rachel Waterman and Maddie Anderson had a goal each for the Blaze.

Lydia Ko's return home for the New Zealand Women's Open will give the former world No. 1 a chance to sustain her recent improvement in form and perhaps collect her first LPGA title in more than a year.
